Answer:
mutual defense alliances, imperialism, militarism, nationalism, and the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand
Explanation:
Europe made mutual defense agreements that pulled them into battle and the following alliances were: Russia and Serbia, Germany and Austria-Hungary, France and Russia, Britain France and Belgium, Japan and Britain. Should one defense alliance declare war on another (ex: Austria-Hungary and Serbia) that would automatically bring Russia into it. Imperialism is when a country increases their power by bringing in territories under their control. The increase in militarism pushed countries involved in the war. Nationalism throughout various countries in Europe contributed to the extension of the war in Europe. In June of 1914, a terrorist group known as the Black Hand assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand. This was protest to Austria-Hungary having control over Serbia. This assassination lead to Austria-Hungary declaring war on Serbia.
Deregulation is the process of removing or reducing state regulations, typically in the economic sphere. It is the repeal of governmental regulation of the economy. It became common in advanced industrial economies in the 1970s and 1980s, as a result of new trends in economic thinking about the inefficiencies of government regulation, and the risk that regulatory agencies would be controlled by the regulated industry to its benefit, and thereby hurt consumers and the wider economy.
Economic regulations were promoted during the Gilded Age, in which progressive reforms were touted as necessary to limit externalitieslike corporate abuse, unsafe child labor, monopolization, pollution, and to mitigate boom and bust cycles. Around the late 1970s, such reforms were deemed as burdensome on economic growth and many politicians espousing neoliberalism started promoting deregulation.
